Earlier this week, Amazon announced that it would finally add user profiles to its Prime Video service. At long last, you can separate profiles for each family member (up to six) so that your Watchlists and recommendations don’t get mixed up. It’s a simple feature that should really have been there from the start, and is a stark reminder of how backwards and lacking the Prime Video experience is compared to the competition.

The journey of one extraordinary young woman will continue. Amazon Prime has renewed the Hanna TV series for a third season.

An action series, the Hanna TV show follows the journey of a woman with unparalleled skill and elite training, as she evades the relentless pursuit of a sinister government agency and tries to unearth the truth behind who she is.

Season two, which was released on July 3rd, picks up where the first season ended — with Hanna now knowing that she’s not the only young woman with her amazing skills. The Utrax program has produced a whole slew of highly trained teenagers whose development is about to reach the lethal “second phase.”

A premiere date will be announced in the future.

Netflix is testing a new feature

You know the drill – you power up Netflix, find yourself feeling overwhelmed with the endless amount of choices, and end up scrolling for hours without being able to commit to anything.

With so many TV shows, movies, and documentaries to choose from, it’s no wonder that many users oftentimes struggle with finding something to watch.

It’s become such an issue that it seems Netflix has taken it upon themselves to offer up a solution that aims to help indecisive viewers.

According to Forbes, some Netflix users are reportedly seeing a “shuffle” feature in the app.

Netflix has yet to comment or confirm the feature, however, the publication noted that based on the minimal amount of users seeing the option, it’s either a “slow rollout” or a “limited test.”

The shuffle feature works in the same way you would shuffle songs on a music playlist when you don’t know what you want to listen to.

It will reportedly appear under both a specific program and on the menu. It’ll shuffle through movies and TV shows for you and make a choice based on your viewing habits.

Netflix is producing a new non scripted romance show called “Love on the Spectrum” it is a notable moment for mainstream content, as individuals with special needs are rarely represented on TV, especially in the unscripted space, although A&E’s critically-acclaimed “Born This Way,” which followed a group of adults with Down syndrome, was praised for its realistic depiction, winning several Emmys and receiving a Television Academy Honor in 2016.

“Love on the Spectrum” will center on young adults on the autism spectrum as they navigate the unpredictable world of dating.

The series is produced by Northern Pictures, a Blue Ant Media company, with the support of Screen Australia, in association with ABC Television. The show originally aired on ABC Australia in Nov. 2019, and will be branded as a Netflix original in all countries outside of Australia“Love on the Spectrum” will span across five hourlong episodes.

Jamie Foxx award winning actor and musician fought his way to the top. He proved to the industry that he deserved a place in Hollywood. get all the details on his epic career. From humble beginnings  jamie foxx aspired to be a musician, during college his life took a dramatic turn in another direction in this video we will chronicle the life and career of Jamie Foxx Jamie Foxx was born Eric Bishop on December 13, 1967, in the little town of Terrell, Texas, population fourteen thousand. His father and mother were very young when they had him and were overwhelmed by the burden of parenthood. When Foxx was just seven months old he was adopted by his maternal grandparents, Mark and Esther Talley. Esther Talley had a profound impact on her adopted son, and in interviews Foxx credits her as being his inspiration. "My grandmother was 60 years old when she adopted me,"  "She ran a nursery school and had a library in the house. She saw me reading early, saw I was smart and believed I was born to achieve truly special things." A devout Christian, Talley did not allow nonreligious music in her house, but she did push Foxx to take piano lessons from an early age. The boy showed such talent that when he was thirteen years old he was making up to three hundred dollars a month playing piano at events around town. By the time he was fifteen, Foxx was musical director and choir leader at Terrell's New Hope Baptist Church. The budding musician also showed he had talent on the gridiron. In high school he played quarterback on the Terrell Tigers football team, and he became a local hero when he was the first player to pass for more than one thousand yards. Foxx was a shining star, but his biological parents didn't take part in the glory. Although they lived only twenty-eight miles away in Dallas, they rarely visited their son. "I was making the Dallas Morning News, and my father never came down," “That absence made me angry. It made me want to be something." After high school the talented teen won a piano scholarship from the United States International University in San Diego, California. During the week, Foxx studied under Russian teachers alongside top phenomenons from around the world. He spent his weekends in Los Angeles shopping for a record deal and haunting local comedy clubs. In 1989, Foxx felt confident enough to try his hand at stand-up. He started out doing dead-on impersonations of some of his favorite comedians, such as Bill Cosby (1937–) and Richard Pryor (1940–), who he had watched on television while growing up. Soon Foxx became a regular on the comedy club open-mic circuit, and he dropped out of college to pursue a career full time. To make ends meet, he worked part-time as a janitor and as a shoe salesman. One night Foxx literally had a life-altering experience when he signed up to be a fill-in at  the Improv in Santa Monica . A TV crew was on-hand filming an HBO special, and to ensure that he would be called on, the ambitious comedian wrote four different made-up names on the sign-up sheet—all girls' names, since he had noticed that girls tended to be chosen by the emcees. When Jamie Foxx was called, the name Eric Bishop was relegated to the past. "Eric Bishop is Clark Kent," Foxx told Josh Young of Variety, "Jamie Foxx is Superman." The newly named Foxx became successful enough to quit his day jobs and devote himself to performing seven nights a week.

What would you think if I told you that one of the first motion pictures ever shot was  due to a stubborn man and a bet? Well that's exactly what happened. Stay tuned as we Chronicle the history of motion pictures… in this episode we'll Chronicle the birth of the industry from One of the first recorded motion picture moments came from a racehorse breeder named Leland Stanford governor and Stanford university founder who claimed that in full stride a racehorse has all four legs off the ground at one time which was pretty impossible to prove with just the naked eye. Leland enlisted Edward muybridge a British American photographer. In 1877 muybridge set up a string of camera's along the racetrack with wires connected to the shutters as the horse made it's way down the track its hooves triggered the camera Individually. He set up 12 cameras in total. Muybridge mounted the images on a rotating disk and projected them onto a screen with a magic lantern. The result of this experiment not only proved mr Stanford right but also set the spark for the motion picture industry. Thomas Edison not wanting to be left behind and also needed a companion to his phonograph enlisted a young lab assistant to invent a motion picture camera in 1888. He used clock parts to ensure the film moved through the camera at a regular pace. The camera was named the kinetograph and it imprinted up to 50ft of film at at the rate of 40 frames per second. Because Edison had originally thought of motion pictures as an addition to his phonograph, he didn't commission the invention of a projector to accompany the Kinetograph. Rather, he had Dickson design a type of peep-show technology theentors, including the Englishman William Friese-Greene, applied for patents on various cameras, projectors, and camera-projector combinations   even before Edison and his associates did. Because Edison had originally thought of motion pictures as an addition to his phonograph, he didn't commission the invention of a projector to accompany the Cinematography. Rather, he had Dickson design a type of peep-show technology the Kinetoscope, in which a continuous 47-foot  film loop ran on spools between an incandescent lamp and a shutter for individual viewing. Starting in 1894, Kinetoscopes were marketed commercially through the firm of Raff and Gammon for $250 to $300 apiece. The Edison Company established its own Kinetograph studio  called the “Black Maria”  in West Orange, New Jersey, to supply films for the Kinetoscopes that Raff and Gammon were installing in penny arcades, hotel lobbies, amusement parks, and other such  places. In April of that year the first Kinetoscope parlour was opened in a converted

Ozark #Netflix

Transcript:  Welcome to Netflix News weekly your source for the latest news in one place. Probably the biggest news this week from Netflix is the renewal of ozark with a season 4. Season 4 will be  expanded into 14 episodes for the first installment. I'm fairly certain Netflix said season 3 was the final season but now cant find anything backing this up. If you haven't seen Ozark yet I highly suggest you do so. Its still too early to have a release date The third season was  released in March this year, the upcoming fourth season will be released probably a year later, that’s mostly by 2021 summer we could expect the Ozark fourth season. Or it might be a little delayed due to the Corona. Never have I ever has been officially renewed for a second season. The way season 1 ended It was clear that a second season was already considered. Its a  American coming of age comedy-drama television series  created by Mindy Kaling and Lang Fisher. The comedy is partially based on Kaling's real childhood story, growing up in the Boston area. I enjoyed this series and cant wait for more. No release date set yet I will update once word gets out The last kingdom has officially been picked up for season Don't get excited quite yet though With a series like The Last Kingdom, every aspect of the production is an incredibly lengthy process, which means we won’t be seeing the fifth season until the very end of 2021, potentially even the start of 2022. the Last Kingdom is a Netflix Original historical-fiction drama, based on The Saxon Stories by author Bernard Cornwell. Warrior nun has not officially been renewed for a second season but sources say it was expected to go 2 seasons from the start once an official renewal comes up ill update this. Dead to me has been officially renewed for a 3rd and final season. Netflix has renewed the Christina Apple gate-Linda Cardellini dark comedy for a third and final season. Meanwhile, series creator Liz Feldman will remain in the Netflix fold via a multi-year development deal. There were a few breakout releases this week Patriots Day starring Mark Wahlberg killed the competition and landed in the number one spot. Finally beating out 365. The Unsolved mysteries reboot also broke out and had a stellar week. Warrior Nun quickly became a hot series and a must see. The biggest surprise however was the babysitters club no one expected this series to soar to the top. Its a modern twist on the classic books my wife and daughter absolutely loved it and i'm pretty sure season 2 talks are under way. Thanks for watching we really appreciate it .
